how on earth do you arrive at this conclusion?? "society needs to be inclusive which means we need to get rid of minority languages".
why are we, as minority cultures, supposed to give up our languages and cultures so that people who refuse to care about us can feel "included"?? it's like those absolutely ridiculous takes that scotland/wales/etc having minority languages and wanting independence "only serves to divide us" and "we need to focus on our similarities and not our differences". differences are good and should be celebrated, not squashed out in order to create some sort of sanitised "inclusivity".
why should we need to make members of majority cultures feel included when they say things like this about us?? we are obviously going to purposely exclude you when you're acting so mean and vile like this. why can't you learn about our languages and cultures and take part in them and be included in them?? i think most speakers of minority languages in britain would be happy to hear you're learning our languages. why don't you broaden your horizons and include yourselves into more languages, instead of deciding that an "inclusive society" means we need to give up everything so we can all be like you. different cultures/languages/etc are good. i don't understand how people will say they want an inclusive society, and then it turns out they mean cultural genocide. how are we as minority cultures meant to feel included??
also "it's almost like a different language".... uh yeah, because it IS a different language.. what on earth am i supposed to say to that..
and "gaelic is only as much use to those who understand it" yeah i feel like english is also only useful to people who understand it?? couldn't you say that about every language??
god i hate twitter
